This is a sarcastic response, right? It's a bunch of incongruent buildings, some old, some new, some ugly, with no sense of campus or together-ness. NYU holds their graduation at Yankees Stadium outside of the city because they literally don't have a great lawn or area on their co-called campus where they can hold a graduation ceremony or gathering of any size larger than 200 people [/quote]

No, seriously it's perfectly integrated into the capital city of the world. With Washington Square Park serving as its central hub, the vibe is truly unmatched by schools stuck in the middle of nowhere with boredom. [/quote]

:lol:  The "vibe" of NYU is urban, concrete, and rats.  Enjoy![/quote]

Seriously who prefers drinking in the middle of nowhere vibe.[/quote]

Much prefer a beautiful, pastoral setting to the crime-ridden, noisy, concrete jungle, but YDY.[/quote]

Enjoy MAGA country for us, if cities scare you that much. I’m surprised the internet connection in your impoverished rural hellscape is strong enough to post on DCUM.[/quote]

All this vitriol for someone making the obvious point that NYU is not exactly what comes to mind when people ask about beautiful college campuses?  [/quote]
Meh. They’re both in the wrong. Other poster called NYC crime ridden, which is frankly bullshit.[/quote]

It's crime ridden compared to Sewanee, TN, and Gambier, OH.[/quote]

Again, this is an Arsenal versus San Antonio Spurs comparison.  Two small towns versus the most populated city in the US.

My DS at NYU travels around Manhattan on the subway at all hours without any difficulty.

Manhattan has a substantially lower rate of violent crime than other US cities (he’s actually much safer there than in his home Top 30 metro) and a lower rate of property crime than other US cities (again lower than his city of origin).

Violent crime in Manhattan is also at historic lows, which is true of a lot of US cities.

I actually feel sad for people who believe they have to send their kids to schools like Sewanee and Kenyon to feel safe.

No one cares that you're triggered.  NYU is not a "most beautiful campus" by any stretch of the imagination, so you're on the wBrong thread.

Beauty is a subjective concept. 
NYU campus can absolutely be considered among the most beautiful.
